Exhibit 3.1
CERTIFICATE OF AMENDMENT
TO THE CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF
WPCS INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATED
WPCS International Incorporated, organized and existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, does hereby certify:
FIRST: That the Board of Directors of WPCS International Incorporated adopted a proposed amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation of said corporation to effect a reverse stock split, declaring said amendment to be advisable.
The proposed amendment reads as follows:
Article Fourth is hereby amended by striking the third paragraph in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
Upon the effectiveness (the “Effective Time”) of this Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, each share of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be automatically combined and converted into that fraction of a share of Common Stock of the Corporation as has been determined by the board of directors in its sole discretion within the range of 1-for-2 and 1-for-100 shares and publicly announced by the Corporation at least 3 days prior to effectiveness of this Certificate of Amendment (the “Consolidation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the Consolidation. Shares shall be rounded up to the nearest whole share. Each certificate that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented shares of common stock (“Old Certificates”), shall thereafter and without the necessity for presenting the same represent that number of shares of common stock into which the shares of common stock represented by the Old Certificate shall have been combined, subject to the rounding up of any fractional share interests as described above.
SECOND: That, pursuant to a resolution of its Board of Directors, a special meeting of the stockholders of WPCS International Incorporated was duly called and held upon notice in accordance with Section 222 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware at which meeting the necessary number of shares as required by statute were voted in favor of granting the Board of Directors the authority to amend the Certificate of Incorporation to provide for a reverse stock split and the Board of Directors subsequently approved a ratio of 1-for-22.
THIRD: That said amendment was duly adopted in accordance with the provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
FOURTH: That said amendment shall be effective as of 12:01 a.m. EDT on April 20, 2015.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, said corporation has caused this certificate to be signed this 16th day of April, 2015.
